I know what you mean.
Don't think it's in bad taste though, obviously you knew her better than me, as my only interactions with her were on here, I'll miss being told that one of my bikes slaps by Hayley.
But, to my mind, the best way to honour her is to keep building and posting updates of our silly little machines.
Be well. Peace n love.

Fuckin shit news!

Peace n love to all that knew Hayley.

Fantastic weather for mudguards.

I've not had chance to do a proper ride yet, was hoping to go out this coming Saturday, that's not gonna happen though, having a royal visit (my mum's coming down for the day).
Just from riding to and from work it feels very good, probably feel even better once the tyres are tubeless, Airshot and a new track pump should be with me by Wednesday, looking forward to seeing how well the Airshot works.

Please bear in mind that dibs is shit, unless followed up swiftly with a pm, followed by a prompt payment.

Geometry

Selling my Mr Wooden, size is M 56cm, colour is lilac (very nice it is too).
I'd like to sell it as an almost full build, I understand that my component choices are mine and may not be your cup of tea, tough shit! (Only joking, I'll be happy to split as long as the frameset, mudguards, and wheels are taken).

If you're interested in frameset only, or a combination of frameset and some components, pm me for split prices.

Feel free to ask questions relating to said bicycle.

Here's a pic from when it was built up, currently sat in the shed, in pieces, waiting to be cleaned

Failed with a couple of my weekend bike jobs.

Gold chainring bolts are too long, so don't tighten, bit wank, but hey ho.
Wider tyres are on, sit very nicely under the mudguards, they still have tubes in, I'm done with fighting with a standard track pump to get tyres inflated. May order one of them Airshot things.

Successful with other jobs though,

Hulsroy bottle cages fitted, lovely they look too.
XTR rear derailleur has been cleaned and fitted, buttery smooth rapid rising abounds.
Nitto S65 seat post has been fitted.
Mince pies have been eaten.

That's a great photograph, there's summat about workshop pics when they're in black n white.

I'd say about 37mm.
Why whatya thinking?

Edit: I have to take the GKs off to set up tubeless, so I can refit a Cava and have a proper measure if you like?

As I thought, 43mm tyres (which probably measure up nearer to 40mm on 19mm internal rims) fit very nicely indeed.
Threw on a pair of Panaracer GK semi slicks I had in my stash (from a build that didn't happen in the summer).
If anyone is interested in a very lightly used (50 miles max) pair of Ultradynamico Cava JFF 700 x 39 (come up narrower on 19mm internal rims), black/black tyres, gimme a shout.

Cheers. I will not make a liar out of you!

Nope!

Weather looks decidedly non bike ridey this weekend.
Gonna crack on with the last few jobs.....
-fit new gold chainring bolts
-fit Nitto S65 seat post
-have a trial fit of some wider tyres, see how much I can get away with, then set rims n tyres up tubeless
-fit new hulsroy bottle cages
-clean and fit the XTR rear derailleur
-eat mince pies.

God, that mince pie slice has me salivating!

Custard. it's a sweet pie, so has to be custard, non of your gourmet shit with real vanilla extract and seeds in it, oh no, just "fuck knows how they make it so creamy" Ambrosia!

These arrived today. ♥️

It's a Carradice Audax made of lightweight waterproof fabric rather than duck cotton, it's now been replaced by the Cambrian in the line up.

Edit: one of these
